Sir Warwick Fairfax: A Man of Noble Character It's certainly not uncommon to hear a son talk about his father with respect, admiration and love – the way Warwick talks about his father in this week's episode. But the noble character Sir Warwick Fairfax modeled to his son has had an impact that's birthed the business that son founded, including this podcast you're listening to right now. In this last episode of the year in our series within the show, STORIES FROM THE BOOK CRUCIBLE LEADERSHIP, we discuss the many ways in which Warwick's father did the right thing no matter how hard doing the right thing was, setting an example for his boy that lives on today in the work of Beyond the Crucible. You'll want to listen especially closely for the surprising moment Warwick and I realize a poem his father wrote in a book he was working on before he died in 1987 planted the seeds for Warwick's life of significance as founder of Beyond the Crucible.

Today we conclude our worship series “Uncommon Wisdom.” In a culture that tells us we should do whatever we can to get ahead—even if it means lying, stealing, and manipulation—we have been looking at the seemingly uncommon wisdom of the book of Proverbs. In this book of scripture, we find 100s of short sayings that show us a God-centered path to the good life. Over the past five weeks, we have looked at several of these sayings: Better the poor person who lives with integrity than the rich one who distorts right and wrong. The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are protected. 2 When arrogance comes, disgrace follows, but with humility comes wisdom. 22 A beautiful woman who rejects good sense is like a gold ring in a pig's snout. to see what morsel of God's wisdom they have to share. This week, we conclude our series with the poem, “The Woman of Valor” or how it's more commonly understood, “The Woman of Noble Character.”
